Taobao on a Hong Kong line, in practice

413K lines stand ready for this pairing across 3 carriers, opening at $0.23. The line wears the +852 prefix and takes the Taobao code the way any other Hong Kong handset would. Which carrier is yours to decide above: they part company on tariff, and they part company again on how dependably the message arrives.

A line stays reserved for twenty minutes. Should nothing reach you inside that window, the reservation lifts on its own and the balance is untouched — which is exactly why moving between the carriers above is free to attempt. Only the try that lands is the one you settle.

Questions this page raises

How much does a Hong Kong number for Taobao cost?

From $0.23, settled only when the code lands. 3 carriers hold this pairing at the moment and their tariffs differ — each is set out in the grid above.

Which Hong Kong carrier is the one to take?

The 3 carriers holding Taobao on a Hong Kong line differ in tariff and in how much they have idle, and the grid above prints both. Begin with the cheapest that still has lines; if it comes to nothing, no charge is made and the next one is a click away.

How quickly does the code come through?

Seconds, as a rule. The line is held for twenty minutes, and if that window closes with nothing in it the reservation lifts automatically and the money stays where it is.
